Koray Savas 2,251 Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 I never said you shouldn't buy it, I was just marveling at the fact that you will experience a JW score for the first time. For many of us it's a rare occasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,364 Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 I'm sure! It's kind of good that I never got around to them, as now I still have "new" Williams scores to look forward to discovering in the years to come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Mark 3,631 Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 I don't really understand the logic . Here we are waiting on this MB for years until the next JW score when there's some available on c.d. you haven't heard yet?At least you could give them a listen instead of the latest generic action score to come out or useless RCP recording sessions being passed around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SF1_freeze 131 Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 I also never listened to most of the mentioned JW dramatic scores and so i am looking forward to all the expanded releases where i can discover them in complete form. For example Rosewood and The Fury are more or less almost completely new for me. (Except the concert suites on the JW Greatest Hits cd or other compilations)I rather discover them with remastered sound quality and in expanded form than to hear a maybe subpar OST album.I mean there are quite some JW scores i never heard apart from concert suites or maybe watching the movie if available. For example almost every pre 1974 JW score and some newer ones like The Fury, Heartbeeps, The River, The Accidental Tourist, Stanley and Iris, Stepmom, Sabrina, Nixon, Sleepers, Rosewood, Seven Years in Tibet, The Patriot... So there is still a lot to look forward to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor 7,504 Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 I've heard all John Williams film scores and seen all films (except one). I've also seen and heard a great deal of his TV work. However, like Jason, I feel like I still have a lifetime of JW music to explore, since only a small fragment of those TV scores are available. There are literally hundreds of episodes in different genres that I still need to track down and hear. With such a prolific man like Williams who's been doing music for so many years....this 'quest' will never end, I think.I'm just glad I'm not a Morricone completist!

Ollie 1,059 Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Angela's Ashes is superb.Presumed Innocent and Sleepers are underrated.People need to realize / remember not everyone has been collecting as long as some of us have. Even though I've been collecting since I was 8 it was LP's and tapes until the late 80's. Even with the introduction of CDs, I had maybe a 1/4 of my library at the beginning of 1998. Then the boom took off.It's expensive and not everyone runs out and downloads stuff, they buy their stuff, plus a lot of younger members here.

Jay 37,364 Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Well I'm 33 and have been into Williams since I bought the Star Wars Anthology in 1994, but it wasn't until 2002 or so that I started buying every single OST of his that came out (and even then, I never got Geisha until a few years back). So I missed a lot of the 90s outputs, especially since they were for dramas my teenage self had no interest in seeingAs I've said, I have plenty of time now to discover them one by one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you'll have to do it in your own tempo. The great thing about your approach is that you have all these great scores (and even films) to look forward to while some of us are digging through obscure "trash cans" for more Williams that might not be even half as good.

But my collecting started with Star Wars re-release and The Lost World, which was my first proper film score I had by him.I like most of his dramatic output, some it more than I used to, some of it less.Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm 34 and started in 94 with the Star Wars Trilogy (Skywalker Symphony). Though I'd already started blind-buying most Williams CDs I found in stores in the later 90s.

Or dismiss as not worth listening to since Williams decided not to include it on the albumBut you'll seek out obscure TV scores that don't even have released albums.And even make TV recordings with sound effects and dialogue so you can listen to the music, which is exactly what the rest of us are doing with unreleased music from other scoresSo what is it? Listening to unrelased music is fine as long as an album doesn't exist, but as soon as Williams picks the cues that should go on the album, the rest of them become automatically worthless to listen to?
